We Train Organizations To Make High Quality High Velocity Decisions

Story Time

As a data scientist at Twitch, it was my job to help people use evidence to make good decisions. I found that step 1 was actually training my colleagues to clearly communicate how they expected a plan to go. For many critical decisions there just isn't much data to go on, and expert intuition is the most important evidence to leverage. One week I made a training module using a Google form that 97% of Twitch staff would recommend to a colleague. That's when I knew I was onto something. I automated my most important job, and that’s where Evident came from.

What People Say

I recommended the prediction training Danny developed at Twitch to all our employees. It was really useful to get people to think critically about what the expected impact of their work would be. That critical thinking is very important for anyone who makes important decisions at work.

I train people in the same way engineers and scientists train machine learning systems: by having them predict known outcomes of interest. The same regimen empowers teams to more accurately predict which projects will be massive hits or tragically delayed. For a thorough explanation checkout this post .
